About Paul Hastings
I worked most of my career in Silicon Valley hi-tech and financial services but found most satisfaction in my hobbies, making fine furniture and taking pictures. Woodworking taught me respect for raw materials, the beauty of wood itself. I gained the same respect for nature's beauty. So with experience, my challenge has been to build on, to highlight nature's beauty while staying true to its reality.
I particularly enjoy capturing an image so that it communicates my impressions of the scene, tells a story. As such, my pictures here are almost always literal. With minimal editing they portray the beauty I saw. When I browse through my website, I recall sounds, scents, impressions from the moments I clicked the shutter.
I hope some will bring back similar fond memories for you.
Several years ago, fed up by my inability to create prints that matched my digital images, I decided to study and learn the workflow elements of fine art inkjet printing. After a lot of effort, trial and error, and enough discarded prints to be on a first-name basis with local recyclers, I'm ready to offer some of my work on this website.
All Gallery images on my website are printable and available in various sizes. I control the process from image capture to final print.
